Actor addresses rumours of affair with Michelle Obama
Kumail Nanjiani clarifies if he had affair with Michelle Obama
Actor Kumail Nanjiani addressed a circulating rumour that he was having an affair with Michelle Obama during a recent podcast appearance.
Nanjiani explicitly stated he has "never met" the former US First Lady, expressing amusement at the baseless speculation.
His wife, Emily V Gordon, was reportedly aware of the rumour, which multiple people had brought up to her.
The discussion also touched upon another persistent internet rumour involving Barack Obama and Jen Aniston, with Nanjiani joking about the "affair partners" "slumming it".
Nanjiani also reflected on the disappointing critical reception of his Marvel film Eternals, which he said led him to seek therapy.
